39 The first self-referenced Frequency Comb 3.5f -4f self-referencing (N=7, M =8) 39
40 Generating an Octave Spanning Comb Photonic crystal fiber: William Wadsworth Jonathan Knight Tim Birks Phillip Russell U. of Bath England note: if the action of the fiber is the same for all the pulses the field stays stricly periodic. This property is the only one necessary to derive 1 n = n1 r + 1 CE 40
41 A much more compact Device f -2f self-referencing (N=1, M =2) 41
42 Compact Ringlaser -wedge and EOM for slow and fast 1 CE cont rol. -translation stage and PZT for slow and fast1 r cont rol. 42
43 Simplest way of Self Referencing: M =2 N=1 It is simple to detect 1 CE of an oct ave wide frequency comb: 1 CE = 2(n1 r + 1 CE ) (2n1 r + 1 CE ) J. Reichert et al., PRL 84, 3232 (2000) 43
44 Fiberlaser -pump power controls1 CE -fiberstretcherfor1 r cont rol 44
45 Fixpoint Concept I fixpoint at 1=0 Cavity length L elast ic t ape : (n1 r + 1 CE ) (1 + L/L)
46 Fixpoint Concept II fixpoint at m = 0 (1= 1 C ) Pump power accordion : m1 r (1+ ) + 1 C Fixpoint important for locking and noise compensation! Better to enumerate mode number m from fixpoint.
47 Controlling the Frequency Comb depends on the cavity length 1 n = n1 r + 1 CE depends on the pump power we can measure and cont rol 1 r = 2 /Tand 1 CE = 7/T 47
48 Optical Frequency Counter locked to a Cs atomic clock 1 n = n1 r + 1 CE every mode can be used for opt ical frequency measurement a million st abilized lasers in a single beam! 48
49 Frequency Conversions with the Comb radio frequency or optical frequency radio frequency optical frequency locked to a Cs clock optical frequencies optical frequency locked to a stable laser radio frequency locked to countable clock output radio frequency or optical frequency optical frequency locked to a stable laser measure another laser optical frequency locked to Science 293, 825 (2001) 49
